Root Rooting the Metro 2.2 froyo update

[QeUOTE=dukefenix;2769905]Thanks man! However, when i get to that folder using RootExplorer, i do not see the option to RW.... am i missing something?[/QUOTE]

Top right hand corner of screen is where I found it did you change. It to rw in the main part of root explorer? Check than then look top right corner in each file in sequence. To the apps and let me know. What happens
 
In root explorer hit Rw in the main menu and go to cust/metropcs/us/app hit Rw top right corner select all apps and delete!

the rest can be deleted by going into tibu hit problems to d/l busybox then backup and restore at the top then top right click to edit filters hit system (second row)
then apply in the top right you should be able to delete the last few remaining peices of crapware floating around on your phone
 
last nite i got p'od at this update and tryed to restore 2.3.4 but now the data will not format it stops at datta no matter if im formatting or the phones restoring f'n metro
